Abstract: A process and apparatus for producing reaction products by indirectly preheating and heating reactants by indirect heat exchange. The use of the preheating step simplifies the reaction zone design by eliminating the need of external exchangers and is particularly suited for an arrangement of plates that defines narrow channels for indirect heat exchange. The narrow channels are preferably defined by corrugated plates. The primary reaction channels (in section 42) will contain a catalyst for the promotion of the desired reaction product from the principal reactants. The heating fluid (30) passes through adjacent heating channels (in section 28) to provide indirect heating. At least a portion of the heating channels exchange heat with a non-catalytic portion of the reaction channels (in section 40) to preheat the reactants ahead of a catalytic section (in section 42) of the reaction channels. Catalytic combustion within the heating channels (in section 28) may provide in-situ heat input for the heating medium (30). Suitable catalysts for the heating channels may comprise oxidation promoting catalysts.

Abstract: A communication system including a closed loop power control system. Prior to allowing a handoff to a new base station, the subscriber station verifies that its reverse link signal is being received by the destination base station with sufficient energy. The determination is made based on the received reverse link power control commands from the base station. Moreover, a handoff may be forced when the base station providing the best forward link signal is not receiving the reverse link signal from the subscriber station with sufficient energy.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining a weight coefficient of an artificial associative neuron synapse, where the synaptic weight coefficient is determined on the basis of the temporal average of a product of two signals. The method comprises the steps of taking temporal samples from the product of said two signals at such moments when one of the signals starts to deviate from zero, feeding said samples into such a shift register chain, from where a predetermined number of said samples taken at previous moments are continuously available, deducing on the basis of said samples taken at previous moments, whether a value deviating from zero is to be set as the synaptic weight coefficient. The invention also relates to an artificial associative neuron synapse.

Abstract: A semiconductor chip includes a semiconductor substrate having a rectifying contact diffusion and a non-rectifying contact diffusion. A halo diffusion is adjacent the rectifying contact diffusion and no halo diffusion is adjacent the non-rectifying contact diffusion. The rectifying contact diffusion can be a source/drain diffusion of an FET to improve resistance to punch-through. The non-rectifying contact diffusion may be an FET body contact, a lateral diode contact, or a resistor or capacitor contact. Avoiding a halo for non-rectifying contacts reduces series resistance and improves device characteristics. In another embodiment on a chip having devices with halos adjacent diffusions, no halo diffusion is adjacent a rectifying contact diffusion of a lateral diode, significantly improving ideality of the diode and increasing breakdown voltage.
